This is a novella. In 1960, the city of Agadir was devastated by a massive earthquake; over one-third of the population died. Three young boys managed to survive this catastrophic disaster, which in-turn, sent them fleeing out into the world on grand adventures to Paris, Egypt, and the United States. Fifty years later Ali, Amine, and Hicham return to Morocco; together they unravel their journeys and re-establish their friendships during turbulent times in North Africa. This is a story about survival, hope, and the play of destiny on one's life.
